The MA staff are based in St George Wharf, London
The national office is staffed by a small, focused team of professionals with a wide range of experience, who are based at the MA premises in Central London.
We provide our members with a collective voice, working with them to influence key decision-makers in Parliament and government to promote the sound administration of the law and the role of magistrates. We also provide free advice, support and guidance for all members; create community engagement opportunities through our Magistrates in the Community initiative; publish MAGISTRATE, the only magazine dedicated to the magistracy; and hold a number of events every year.
